Abraham Wright, 1752-1814

Posted: 16 May 2005 12:50PM GMT
Classification: Query
Surnames: Wright, Burt
My fourth great-grandfather, Abraham Wright, was b. 13 July 1752, in Mansfield, Tolland, CT, married first 19 May 1773 to Sarah Babcock, and second 13 December 1787 to Phebe Burt. He died 14 February 1814, in Kingsbury, Washington County, New York. His living children by Sarah Babcock, mentioned in his will, were Sarah, Zerviah, Mercy, Phebe, Amos, Ebenezer, and James. The children of his second wife, Phebe, mentioned in his will, were Abraham, Esther, and Richard.

An Abraham Wright was mentioned in the pension record of Aaron Burt as being a Lieutenant under Captain Henry Brown in Col Vanboit's (sp) regiment when Aaron Burt re-enlisted in Cambridge, NY on 20 July 1780. Is this the same man?

Many thanks for your help!
